Calallen bank robbed

CORPUS CHRISTI - American Bank security video caught images of a 30-something Hispanic male as he pulled a gun on tellers at the banks Northwest Branch Wednesday morning, before fleeing with an undetermined amount of money.

"Corpus Christi police, are looking for the man, described as thin and between 5 foot 10 inches and six foot tall, who took off on foot with the money," said Corpus Christi Police Lt. Bill Breedlove.

Police spent more than an hour processing the scene for fingerprints and have the video and a couple of other leads, Breedlove said.

American Bank Chief Administrative Officer Trey McCampbell said its unclear how much money the man got off with, from the bank at 15038 N. West Boulevard in Calallen. "It is one of the bank chains smaller locations and employs roughly five people," he said.

"What we do know is that no one was hurt," McCampbell said. "Everyone followed procedure, and our goal is always to get the bank robber out of the bank. The rest is up to the police to investigate and they will release information as they want. Our most important policy is to ensure the safety of the employees."
